You've probably heard that it's the most spoken language. Today it's also one of the most written languages online .

It is reported that at any moment, up to 9,000,000 people are using QQ. They're at work, or in a web café, or at home, and the information of the users can be found. If you sign on with your address set to “abroad” , you’ll soon find that many thousands of them are interested in speaking to you ! This is a great way for you to learn Chinese , and for them to learn English . I think it’s a very interesting way of cultural communication, too , for ordinary(普通的) people from around the world to be able to have one—on—one contact .
